I am seemingly a collection of differences; a mountain man living on the plains, a small town boy living in the city, and a simple soul working in a high-tech environment. I love being outside, but work inside, quick to cry at a Kodak commercial, but with a military background. But most of all, I am the father of a wonderful boy with Cerebral Palsy.

2. My hair started receding north at an alarming rate when I was about 24 or so, doesn't bother me now, but back in the long hair days, this really sucked!

3. I have one pubic hair that grows about 4 times longer than the rest, and is about twice as thick.

4. I have a big scar on my back that everyone who sees it is sure it is from a knife fight, or I was involved in an industrial accident. It is actually from having a lump surgically removed, I think my doctor got his license in some lame-ass Caribbean school.

5. I was ranked 13th in my graduating class from high school, which sounds impressive until I tell you my class had about 60 kids in it.

6. Drugs that are supposed to be quite intense for most people don't have that much effect on me. When a doctor says be careful with this pain killer, it is very strong and you shouldn't drive, I get the same amount of buzz as most people who have 1/2 a glass of wine. I blame the indiscretions of my youth and my experimentation...

I usually don't tag folks, but I will tag some new readers to my blog:
